A thought that caught my eye in this Metafilter thread:
A person’s success in life is determined by what he does between 5 and 10 pm.
A bit overly generalized, yes (but not so much in the context of that thread), but I like the sentiment behind it. Especially lately I’m bad for leaving work, stopping at a cafe, having dinner, and then just… not doing much. Part of that is that I probably need to fix my sleep schedule so that I’m not dead to the world by mid-evening. But I’ll definitely need to get that habit fixed for next year.

That observation becomes especially interesting when one considers the availability of artificial light.

(Why is it staying in the office late because you spent the day goofing off makes you a hard worker, but getting in early and getting your work done by the end of the day makes you invisible?)
